He was part of the Qing Clan, his last name was Qing, not Yan


’’ Grandfather, we have nothing to do with Qing Qing being expelled from Yan Residence. ’


’’I'm her grandfather. You are all his uncles, brothers, and sisters. Let's forget whether you're involved or not. The fact that/that you did nothing was already a crime for Qing Shui. Even if you do, do not expect to live long, ” Yan Haoran said angrily.


’’But the blood in his veins is the Yan Clan. She is your granddaughter! ’The words of that graceful young man were startlingly. He was a young person other than the burly young man in the sixth branch.


’’According to you, is the blood flowing through our veins valuable? Do you think he looked up to the blood of the Yan Clan? Do you know what he said to Yan Yidao after he killed Yan Yishao? ’’ Yan Haoran looks at his clueless grandson.


’’She is part of the Qing Clan. His last name was Qing, not Yan. From the moment he came out of the Yan Residence, he had no relationship with the Yan Clan at all. ’’


These words were considered an insult to the entire Yan Clan. Unfortunately, this was the relationship between Qing Shui and the Yan Clan! Relationships that cannot be reconciled.


…………


Inside the Realm of the Violet Jade Immortal!


Qing Shui finished his training for now. His strength had grown a little, but the Ancient Strengthening Technique was still within the 136th cycle of Qi circulation. However, it will reach cycle 137 soon.


Although he had only gathered energy for a breakthrough, the time it took to do that became longer. However, the strength gained also increased progressively for the next breakthrough. In this case, it would take more than three years for the 136th cycle of Qi to circulate to reach cycle 137. In the real world, it takes about a month or so with diligent and continuous training.


As she washed her face and soaked her mouth, she saw three beauty portraits hanging on the folding screen, painted with magnificent views of rivers and mountains. He recognized the two women in their respective portraits, except the subtle one in the middle. He was not sure if such a person really existed in the world of the nine continents.


The next thing Qing Shui needed to do was to start making the remaining fur fox. It was difficult when he first started composing feathers, but it became even easier as he continued. He saved a lot of time from the craft as the workmanship improved slightly. In the end, it was a success.


One purple fox fur robe!


One red fox fur robe!


Two snow-white fox fur robes!


The quality of his robe was very similar to the one he had made before. Qing Shui was already pleased with the final result. When he first made the robe, he felt like he needed to pamper himself in nature ‘unselfish’. He was truly happy when he made the next four fox fur robes with the same qualities as the first.


Other than the robe, Qing Shui took the time to make a pair of boots. The outer layer of the boots was made with snow-white fox skin, and the inner layer was constructed with several Tier 50 skeletal frames made with tempered metal essence.


He made special shoes for Qing Qing. His mother had received a set of combat armor and boots …


During the forging of the boots, Qing Shui couldn't calm his emotions. He kept thinking about Qing Qing, especially the image where he was barefoot in the harsh winter …


Qing Shui couldn't help but think of the depressing images inside his head. His hands trembled as he gradually calmed his emotions. He decided he would try his best to make it up to his older sister.


He will give her all the happiness and freedom in the world.


…………


Suddenly, a dazzling bright light illuminated the entire area. Qing Shui was forced to close his eyes as the light became brighter!


That's a pair of snow-white long boots. Qing Shui could feel a strong Qi energy fluctuating within the boots. Suddenly, he remembered about the bright light just a moment ago, and quickly analyzed the boots using his Heavenly Vision Technique.


Fox-fur Battle Boots; it has the ability to increase user speed by 30% with an additional increase of 300 units for user strength, agility, endurance, and energy, as well as an additional increase of 100 for user stamina! Additional skill bonus: Light Flashing Through the Shadow!


When the Flashing Light Blasting Lamp is activated, the user's speed will be doubled for 15 minutes. This skill can be activated once per day!


…………


Qing Shui was confused. The special skill imbued in the Seven Star Armored Vest was determined by the choice of his weapon. But what about the boots? He had never even heard of the Flickering Light Passing Shadow skill before.


Qing Shui made these shoes with Qing Qing in mind. Men have larger feet than women, so it is impossible to fit into women's shoes. He would not have thought in a million years that/that these boots could come with such powerful skills.


Qing Shui felt tired as he walked out of the Realm of the Violet Jade Immortal. So he went straight to sleep!


Without the concept of time, Qing Shui felt like he had come to a strange place. What strange feeling is this? Qing Shui then recalled the dream in the sea of flowers that he had last time.


Dreams in a sea of flowers?


However, this was not the same place he remembered. Furniture was scattered everywhere, including some legendary furniture that Qing Shui had never heard of before. Nevertheless, this place has something in common with the dream of the park.


Where is this place?


Qing Shui looked around suspiciously!


’’Hmm, Furniture Store South City?’ ’


Qing Shui was confused when he realized that/that he was inside the Southern City Furniture Store of the Greencloud Continent. He knows for sure that/it is the same situation as the last time. In an instant, his heart skipped a beat.


There was no way Southern City's furniture store would be this big. He observed the enlarged furniture store and followed the stairs that led up. Qing Shui felt like someone was calling him.


Last time, he was blocked from going up to the third floor. But now, there's no obstacle. In any case, he walked up the stairs carefully!


The third floor was still a large hall, but the size of the hall was significantly smaller than the floor below. The first two floors felt enormous, almost like the size of a wilderness. However, the third floor looked normal.


It seems like there is a Red Sandalwood Carving Cabinet, Red Sandalwood Carving Chair, Mystical Hundred Demonic Table, White Tiger Carpet …


At the end of the hallway, a woman stood up and looked at him!


She was a beautiful woman with dark eyebrows and a dark pair of stunning eyes. She was also tall and slim, but with a full feminine figure. The woman turned out to be very elegant despite her plain clothes on her body.


His elegance reminded Qing Shui of Yiye Jiange. Its aura was not as cold, but somewhere in between firm and cold. Her beauty, however, bewitched!


As Qing Shui looked into her mesmerizing eyes, he felt like he was possessed. She looked like a noble lady who would not be easily influenced by anyone.


She is the woman in the second beauty portrait she gets. It was as if he was living off that portrait. Qing Shui was very surprised to see her in person.


He could not believe that/that he would be in the same situation when he first saw the Misty Hall Palace Priestess. He would not dare to make the same mistake as he did to a dream in a sea of flowers.


Therefore, Qing Shui did not want to approach her. He was satisfied to see it from ten meters away.


’’That's you!’ ‘The woman was surprised when she saw his face.


She had a soft voice, similar to the sacred voice of the Misty Hall Palace Misty Misty Hall Mistress. However, Qing Shui was more surprised to hear the words coming out of his mouth.


’’Do I know you?’ ‘Qing Shui asked with curiosity that lingered in his mind. His eyes were dazzling as he looked at them. He was surprised that/that he recognized him.


’’You bought some furniture from here before!’ ’


’’So you are from South City Furniture Store?’


’’What is going on, why are we connected by telepathy?’ ‘The woman frowned as she looked at Qing Shui.


’’ What do you mean by telepathy? ” Ask Qing Shui.


’’As how we communicate now ...’’


As he finished talking, his figure began to turn misty. The entire furniture store slowly became blurred as well. Qing Shui was no exception. After that, he woke up.


Qing Shui sat on his bed and stared into the empty space. He was pondering what had just happened. The reason she was able to connect with him with a shared consciousness was because of the beauty portrait. Most importantly, he found that/it was the woman in the portrait currently residing in the Southern City Furniture Store.


When he thought about the furniture he saw on the third floor, he pondered whether he should return to the furniture store next time. However, his subconscious was trying to fight that thought from his head.


Qing Shui still did not understand what had just happened a moment ago. He felt very confused because the art mogul said that/it's a beauty portrait is a very valuable treasure. Misty Hall Palace Priestess was the woman on the first portrait of beauty she obtained. He was the one who helped him break through the 5th Layer Ancient Strengthening Technique and saved his life.


Other than his statue, Qing Shui thought that his/her help would be the great treasure of the art mogul. All things considered, there was nothing more precious than being able to break through his techniques and save his life by the Misty Hall Palace Priestess.


Qing Shui shook his head and immediately shattered all those thoughts. There are still a lot of important things to do. He got out of bed, washed his face, and brushed his teeth. After breakfast, he returned to his bedroom and went to the Realm of the Violet Jade Immortal. Then, he changed his battle armor.


He took out some fox fur robes and a pair of boots and came out of his room. The old man, Qing He, and Qing You wore full battle armor, which Qing Shui made back to the Hundred Miles City.


Qing Qing was wearing a fox fur robe that Qing Shui had originally given to Qing Yi. So he gave two snow-white fox fur robes to his mother and Canghai Mingyue.


He gave the red fox fur robe to Shi Qingzhuang!


And the purple fox fur cloak to Huoyun Liu-li!


’’This is for you, brother!’ ‘Qing Shui took out a pair of beautiful white snow shoes in front of Qing Qing.


Qing Qing stared at the spotless snow-white boots. He looked at Qing Shui, who was now smiling at him. Everyone had been showering him with care and love since yesterday, but he was still not used to all the affection. However, she is still grateful to the man who called her ‘ sister’ and everything she has done. He slowly opened, as if a crack had cracked open in his cold heart.


It was a small crack, but he could feel a warmth seeping within him!


’’I made it myself. If you like it, just wear it. We will return to the Yan Residence in a few minutes. ” Qing Shui handed the boots over with a warm smile.


Qing Qing smirked at him, but he felt a smirk of not having happiness. His hands shivered as he received the boots. He feels conflicted. All her life she had been waiting for her mother to bring her home. But now after meeting her own mother and being treated well, she cannot adapt to her new life.


After picking up the shoes from Qing Shui, Qing Qing went upstairs to change!


Right at this moment, someone knocked on the door!


That's Lai Jiutian and Lai Chusong!


’’ Qing Shui, I have prepared some of my best people for you. Let them accompany you and see that everything is going well. ’


’’Thank you, uncle. But I have said this before, our Qing Clan will resolve the matter with the Yan Clan by themselves! ’’Qing Shui rejected Lai Jiutian's offer.


Qing Shui refused because he did not want to rely on others, and more importantly, he would owe them a lot if he were willing to accept their offer!


Not long after Lai Jiutian and Lai Chusong left, Qing Qing descended wearing a snow-white fox fur robe and a pair of snow-white shoes. There was a certain enthusiasm in his movement.


However, all of Qing Shui could see the sadness on her beautiful face!


’’Let's go back to Yan Residence!’ ’


His words were calm but annoying. The day has finally come!
